Husky: A Purchaser for Injectorplast

Husky Injection Molding Systems and Alpla Holding GmbH, Hard, Austria, have signed an agreement for Alpla’s purchase of Injectoplast Kunststoffverarbeitungsgesellschaft m.b.H. The Canadian injection molding machine manufacturer based in Bolton, Ontario, Canada, announced this in a press release. The closure cap manufacturer Injectoplast was part of the Austrian KTW group, which Husky took over in spring 2011. Even then it was clear that Injectoplast was in direct conflict with Husky’s key customers from the beverage industry. The transaction with Alpla is expected to be complete at the end of the first quarter.
